It would seem like a natural "evolution" for the direction of this franchise. I don't know about you guys, but I would love to see them bring the Dinobots back for a sequel, or even in a third installment. I remember them always being the Autobots' back up plan in a tight fix, or when all else seemed lost, and always managed to whoop Megatron's ass in the end. The same can be said about the Constructicons too.
And both teams seemed to be rogue squadrons, which would work out well. Kind of like it did with the Lord of the Rings movies, when Gondor, the elves and Rohan aided each other in battle... They spring up at the last minute as back up. And the most fun part of all would be seeing Optimus Prime "dumb" himself down to talk logic into Grimlock, like he use to... Those were the days. I guess it's just a matter of "how" to create a new Dinobots back story for the movie.
I think including both Dinobots and Constricticons would be an end all, be all conclusion to this franchise if there ever was one. I couldn't even fathom how many robots that would make up in one huge battle to the end...

Orci said himself that the Brawl/Devastator name error was infact an easter egg for the sequel. There's no telling whether he was just covering his ass, talking outta his ass..or just plain lying.. Considering the fact that Brawl was not one of the Constructicons but rather a Combaticon.:csad:

Bonecrusher is a Constructicon and he's dead. So, if they do turn up in the sequel there's only going to be five of them.

Constructicons, maybe, but Devestator would be ungodly huge.
Dinobots, no! They wouldn't fit into the way this movie was made. The only way I can see A, and I don mean 1, Dinobot working, is that when Grimlock crashlands on Earth, he lands in a museum, and the T-rex is what he scans.

The Dinobots wouldn't work. Unless they make them into the Dynobots (their Cybertronian team name), and have Grimlock and Snarl be tanks and Swoop a jet (like in the WWI stories). Also they wouldn't do 5 of them, as Hasbro only has trademark on the three I mentioned.

If they did Devastator he wouldn't be 6. He'd be 3-5, probably 3. That's the way combiners are these days. So they wouldn't need Boncrusher. They could just use the other 4 Constructicon names they have. Scavenger, Long Haul, Scrapper, and Hightower.

I don't know what most of you guys are talking about, saying that the Dinobots wouldn't look right in the film. If they could transfer Scorponok into the film well, then they can do the Dinobots. I for one want them to throw in the Dinobots for the Autobots and the Constructicons for the Decepticons. It'd be great.

Scorponok is equivalent to Ravage or Laserbeak. He robot form was the Scorpion. His alt form was the block on Blackout's back.

The only Dinobot I would use would be Grimlock, and I would not ever refer to him as a "dinobot" in the movie. He would just be a TF who landed on earth during Dinosaur times, and took a T-Rex as his alt form. He would have ended up being locked in a layer of rock at some point and deactivated. Over the years, his artificial flesh would have rotted away, leaving only his metal "endoskeleton." Somehow he ends up being excavated and re-activated, and then eventually would join the Autobots. And he wouldn't talk like "UGH! Me GRIMLOCK! Grimlock am STRONG!" He would hopefully just talk like a big tough guy.

They could have five constructicons show up under the leadership of Shockwave, or Starscream to rebuild the Decepticon force (Seeing as they pretty much had been all wiped out in the first film, skorpy and barricade still pending). As for the Dinobots, i'd rather just see only one, that being Grimlock, he could show up with a few other Autobots (Who responded to Primes call). This way we don't have an overload of underdeveloped characters of which so many of you complained about for the first film.

Hasbro loosing the rights to a few of the names wouldn't have any bearing on the movie. The toys would probably just have a Dinobot or Constructicon prefix in the name.

No it does. It means they wouldn't use the characters at all, or rename them. Just wait, IF they use Hot Rod he will be named Rodimus, or Hot Rodimus. I guarentee you.
What about Mixmaster?
They lost it. And trying to use any variation of it is impossible. It's been trademarked out the a$$ by Hip-hop buisnesses. If they made a mix truck constructicon he would probably be called Quickmix (it's what they did for Micromaster Devastator). Or the constructicons would be 5 (which is more likely).

You need to keep in mind that Hasbro also lost the trademarks to Jazz and Ratchet. Those two characters still were able to keep their original names in the film without any legal repurcussions. Hasbro got around losing those trademarks by naming the toys "Autobot Jazz" and "Autobot Ratchet."

They got those back most likely via litigation and lapsed trademarking. Alternator "Jazz" is called Meister because there was trademark issues. Same with Alternator (and Energon) Shockblast. But they got back Jazz and Shockwave. This matters because Transformers is licesened by Hasbro they get final say in who's in and who's out (ahd what they are called) of any movie.

I'm actually not really a fan of the idea, and I thought the Dinobots in G1 were pretty lame. However, if they chose to include Grimlock in Transformers 2, as a Cybertonian so old that he precedes the Autobot and Decepticon factions themselves, and joins the Autobots after a brief bout of neutrality, I'd be okay with that. If it makes a bunch of fans happy and they can do it in a way that's cool and not stupid, then go for it. As long as it's just Grimlock and not a whole bunch of them.

Change the whole Transformers concept then, while you're at it... And maybe Optimus Prime and the rest of the Autobots could be chorus line dancers while they're stuck on earth with nothing else to do in the mean time. Rewriting the whole backstory for the Dinobots that has no merit or credibility is nonsense. If they're brought in to this movie, it should be a prelude to the fans, and done in a way thats similar to how they became in the first place. Given, with today's technology, fossilized Dinobots stuck in the earth would be out of the question, since earth's been practically stripped of all it's natural resrouces, and thousands of discoveries have already been discovered anyway.
I like the idea of them crash landing near a natural history museum, and taking on the properties of dinosaurs, only to realize their learning processors have been damaged (similar to Bumblebee's problem). This would explain their primitive, caveman-like speech. That concept would seem more feasible than some ancient Cybertonian deciding to help the Autobots.
Just remember, the producers of this film were paying tribute to the original premise of Transformers, and are fans themselves.

honestly, if devastator isn't in the film in one form or another, 'd be sorely pissed.

a snarl and grimlock takedown of devastator while prime and the rest deal with megs and soundwave would be awesome.

Nothing is wrong with having an entire Dinobot squad fighting Devastaor.
The Dinobots are barbarian savages with Grimlock as their King Conan-type leader. Their dinosaur alt-forms are better suited for off-road earth terrain and unconventional combat which is why they could be built to defeat the Decepticons.
I'd like to see them fight Devastator and the Arielbots, built for air supremacy, to combat Predaking. Those two fight scenes alone would make the sequel a must see summer movie.
November Rain
07-17-2007, 07:49 AM
those are introducing far far too many transformers into a sequel format.
i say limit it to one set of constructicons and perhaps some (3 dinobots).
to even include these many bots would require a vast reduction of the human story being told and a large amount of already required character development, especially on the decepticon side.

I think the LOTR approach would be perfect for an epic Transformers sequel where the Decepticons control Earth and Cybertron (thanks to the space bridge) and a smaller band of Autobots must overthrow this tyranny on both planets. Of course you can still have Sam in the middle of it all kind of like Frodo was in The Two Towers.

Please, the idea of a super advanced robot talking like "UGH! Me am STRONG!" is really stupid. If you're so closed off to having the Dinobots being updated, then we're probably best off not having them in there at all. :o
And your explanation for why Grimlock couldn't be "hybernating" in a rock layer didn't make a lick of sense. Please elaborate.

With the way that the first movie was set up, the inclusion of Dinobos would be a big mistake. It made perfect sense to have the 'robots' come to Earth and disguise themselves as the first mechanical object/vehicle that they came across. It would not be natural for them to change into Dinosaur-like creatures. Constructicons, on the other hand, make perfect sense.Either way, you are not going to please everyone. As it was, a lot of fan-boys complained about the first movie with Megatron and Bumblebee not taking their original forms. I, however, rate it as one of the best movies I have ever seen and both my fiance and brother thoroughly enjoyed it despite not having any prior knowledge of the cartoon.I feel it is best if we accept the movie as being part of a separate entity and ignore the cartoons and comics. It would be more beneficial to the movie makers if they maintained the continuity developed in the first movie and, to an extent, disregard the events of the previous incarnations.

I would love to see Constructicons in the sequel. Quite simply, the sequel will have to be bigger and badder than the first film if it's to be successful and as the first film was already totally action packed, they're not going to carry it off with just having more Transformers - we need some huge, oversized, gigantic threats like Devastator. The combining element would also bring a new layer to the film.
As for Dinobots, I would like to see them also but I'm wary of how they would be introduced.
- Grimlock landing near a museum and scanning an old T-rex form? A bit too 'obvious' for my liking, and it also beggars the question as to why all the other Transformers scanned vehicles and he scans an inanimate model? Also, seeing as all his fellow Autobots have harnessed information about Earth from the Internet, it stands to reason that they would be aware that dinosaur forms are extinct on earth and would not be the best disguise. It also does nothing to explain why the Dinobots were of low intelligence compared to the other Autobots - certainly not clever enough to make their way to Earth or be sent on reconnaisance missions. Their main use is their physical strength.
- Grimlock and the other Dinobots dormant on earth for thousands of years? Again, a bit too much artistic license and too 'obvious'. Megatron was the only one who followed the allspark and it has taken the other Transformers this long to get to Earth - there's no sensible explanation as to why the Dinobots would have been there even longer beforehand.
My solution to their introduction would be this. Assuming that the Allspark is still active (or partially active - Prime did retrieve some of it from Megatron's chest), we can assume that it still has the ability to give life to inanimate mechanical objects as it did with the vending machine and mobile phone in the film. What we need is some plot device that enables that piece of the Allspark to come into contact with some inanimate, life-sized dinosaur models. Think a Jurassic Park theme ride or some kind of animated museum - there are places like this in real life with mechanised dinosaur models. Once the allspark comes in contact with these models, they will be given life and the ability to transform. As these mechanised models are normally life sized anyway and even relatively small cars can turn into large robots (look at Jazz/Bumblebee), it stands to reason that the Dinobots will be physically intimidating and very strong.
As they will essentially be newly born and thus have little or no knowledge accumulated, this could also help to explain away their low intelligence and child-like demeanour - everything is 'new' to them.
A further subplot could be developed in the form of the Dinobots having no particular allegiance (again because they do not yet understand who/what they are) and a race against time between the Autobots and Decepticons to find & absorb them into their particular groups.

i have no problems with the dinobots landing on some sort of abaddoned amusement park and taking the forms of the robotic dinosaurs as their own.
there are many different ways for a transformer to blend in with society, being a vehicle is probably the most obvious one if you wish to get around but maybe the dinobots like the simple isolated life so they choose structures that don't normally move.
To be fair, if something as big as devastator is going to be going around, i doubt the least of people's problems is why mechanical dinosaurs are coming in to tackle him.
also they would have to be a reason as to why they wouldn't be featured in future films.

While I like the idea of adding combiners to the mix, I just don't think the Dinobots would work. Leave them out, but perhaps bring in one of the Autobots combiners, Superion for example.
Constructicons yes, but then the 3rd movie has to be even bigger!
Dinobots I would love to see, the only right place for them is somewhere in the jungle or at least not in a big city. I mean Scorponok did also work because he was in the dessert. If they would put him in the city it would also look weird.

Keep in mind that the Dinobots had a prehistoric origin in the Marvel Comics series. And to be honest I think they should use that version of their origin as a template. Something as simple as they were an Autobot special operations team that followed Megatron to Earth would work.

Given the more realistic and (for lack of a better word) believable way they've done this first film, for the Dinobots to make sense wouldn't they take biological looking forms rather than mechanical ones?
I really would love to see them in a sequel but they'd have to have a good reason for having Dinosaur alternate modes.

In response to the thread question...absolutely.
They're major characters from the Transformers universe, I see no reason why they shouldn't be included.
If the Dinobots were the focus of the plot so that their contradictory story could be fleshed out properly, then I'd be all for that. Otherwise, let Grimlock cameo as a one of those toy dinos you see in Best Buy, kinda like the Autobot version of Frenzy. Give him a big fight against soundwave's "Cassette's"

The constructicons and the dinobots are incredibly simple to both put up.
have the constructicons of devastator come back with star scream and soundwave. No probs.
have the dinobots created on earth from prime's remainding piece of allspark from some sort of amusement park or mechanical piece of art made out of some incredibly dense material (probably to commemorate bringing the old with the new etc...). Since they are newly created, it would explain there somewhat slow behaviour and simple logic systems and hence their retarded speech.
it's all so simple.

No Dinobots are needed in a Transformers movie. If anything, it's only necessary to have one Dinobot - Grimlock. Since he is sort of the stupid comic-relief, kick-ass Hulk character, it would be funny that he is the only one that was stupid enough to transform into a dinosaur, instead of a vehicle (he can land in The Museum of Natural History). This isn't a Jurassic Park movie.
The same goes for Insecticons - we already had an ass-kicking Scorpnok, they are not going to have another insect Transformer.
There definitely should be some Constructicons - because those visuals are awesome.
November Rain
08-10-2007, 09:44 AM
They aren't needed but they would be a great part of the story telling.
and again, they don't need to originate from cybertron since it has been shown that the allspark changes already existing devices on planet earth into machines...
while i agree that perhaps they aren't all needed...
grimlock, swoop and snarl should be in it.
grimlock's choice is obviously the dumb strong leader
swoop is the intelligent one that could also have aerial battles with starscream
snarl is big, slightly dumb but is a loner that is led by the others and also has that interesting solar power based increased strength aspect to him.
all pretty useful to the plot me thinks...
especially if they aren't going to include anymore autobots (and reinstate jazz).

The Dinobots wouldn't work. Unless they make them into the Dynobots (their Cybertronian team name), and have Grimlock and Snarl be tanks and Swoop a jet (like in the WWI stories). Also they wouldn't do 5 of them, as Hasbro only has trademark on the three I mentioned.
If they did Devastator he wouldn't be 6. He'd be 3-5, probably 3. That's the way combiners are these days. So they wouldn't need Boncrusher. They could just use the other 4 Constructicon names they have. Scavenger, Long Haul, Scrapper, and Hightower.
http://www.ridforever.info/gallery/albums/Landfill/robot_front.jpg
You could prob just come up with some idea that the combiners can adapt. So if there is six of them, they combine into a gaint form. If three of them die, they can still form up but albeit a lot smaller and more haphazardly. This prob wouldn`t be a good thing to show in a film (i don`t want them all dropping like flies) but it could explain how they could form devastator even without bonecrusher being alive.
Alternatly they could just bring bonecrusher back. Lord knows what actually counts as fatal to a gaint transforming robot.

i think Dinobots shouldn't be in the movies cuz i KNOW its gonna be all....weird. Unless Grimlock came from one of those mechanical T-Rex.
The Constructicons which form Devastator will DEFINETLY go in the movie. It can be either the
1st main villain or 2nd ( because of Megatron.)

Grimlock is one of the most important Transformer characters, he should definitely be in a sequel. I don't care if he's a Dinobot or not, but that character should be there. He's Simon Furman's favorite character for goodness' sake.

If Dinobots were to appear, of course it'd be fine. A lot of the Movie robots look very animalistic anyway (Megatron = lion, Starscream = eagle, Bonecrusher = rodent, Bumblebee = Duh, Ironhide = Bull). And the perfect origin to adapt lies in the IDW Shockwave Spotlight anyway.

Yeah I think your right :woot: But If Grimlock would be in the movie i think in my own comic im drawing i'll put him as some kind of....freaky Auto machine in a shape if a T-Rex but maybe with 4 arms.

If they did Devastator he wouldn't be 6. He'd be 3-5, probably 3. That's the way combiners are these days. So they wouldn't need Boncrusher. They could just use the other 4 Constructicon names they have. Scavenger, Long Haul, Scrapper, and Hightower.

Sorry if this has been said before but Hightower was not a G1 Construction name.

Michael Bay said he had wants a aircraft carrier in the second movie that is a turns in to several transformers maybe thats what he wants the Constructicons to be. An the Dinobots would be great it would be Jurassic Park meets Transformers and maybe the Dinobots could a hologram on for the skin part but when there damaged you see the real dionbots not the hologram to make them look like real dinosaurs or when they transform.

hollogams are cool but just having them in their mechanical forms (as if they were created for a theme park) would be nice...

Lol hollogams xD From a theme park they transform and scare little kids :grin: Its like the machine says "GIVE ME YOUR ICE-CREAM!!" And the little girl says " WHAAAAAAH!!! YOU JERK!!"

I know how u can introduce the Dinobots a scene where a family is in a prehistoric museum that talks about everything from dionsaurs to cavemen. An a little girl strays away to get closer to a t rex model that she noticed eyes dialated as her parents who seem really interrested in the speaker talk on cavemen. She gets closer and in cut scenes show that more transformer are coming in like a meteor again. An a tv in the background you hear playing says breaking news and its reporting live on a fight between optimus and starscream and the dinosaur starts moving and everyone in the museum is panicing and a mother grabs the girl. They dont transform yet he just roars and all the other dinobots start moving and guards fire a couple shoots at them and run when grimlock looks at him. They break through the front door. An a chase could happen as the police show up when they break threw the door. But escape without transforming.
They finally transform when they meet up with the autobots and the boy from even stevens get scared and then makes jokes about a transforming dinosaur u know how they did when they first showed optimus transform.
Constructicons would be introduced as a aircraft carrier as they might will acorrding to Mr. Bay. A group of aircraft carriers run into another unmarked aircraft carrier who doesnt respond and fires missles after no responce they dont even hurt the ship who has one plane on the deck which is starscream. He takes off the runway and they send all planes to the sky about 10 or 11 F-22s and the aircraft carrier finally transforms and everyone like what the F@#$ and the aircraft carrier is swating planes like flies and fires his giant arm canoon at the other ships. When on land they separate into industrial equipment and trucks like cement trucks towing trucks, etc. And transform into the original constructicon mode. Nice:grin: :grin:

NICE! That's pretty cool! I like your idea :grin: So the robot doesn't take the girl's ice-cream except she waits there...and the girl stares.....her parents are paying attention to the speaker...WOOOOHOOO! The Dinosaur should be one of those mechanical dinosaurs that moves it's body. Then after the breaking news on the TV in the muesuem...the camera Zooms out from a employee lounge to the Dinosaur and the dino starts to move TOO much and everybody screams and runs out as the dinosaur TRANSFORMS:cmad: into a TERRIFFYING BIG MACHINE!!!!!! (the a Terminator says "IM BACK" and trips and breaks it's neck.:woot: "JK

wow why am i quoting this??? I dunno. It would be VERY clever if they put Dinobots in Transformers 2. And now you just gave me an idea to use in my comic!!! Check out my pics i drew at the Cybertron section xD Its called Transformers 2 comic design or something...like that.............GRIMLOCK ALL THE WAY:cmad:

Firstly i don`t remember bay ever saying he wanted a group of transformers to turn into an aircraft carrier. I thought that he said he wanted a single transformer who turned into an aircraft carrier and one of the producers completly seperately mentioned their hopes for starscream, combiners and dinobots to feature at some point. I don`t remember any interviews where bay said about combiners all transfoming into a carrier.
Secondly i don`t know how they would explain it but i expect the dinobots will lok like robotic dinosaurs like in the g1 stuff. I`m guessing transformers cannot have organic looking alt modes in the movie bit otherwise frenzy definitly would have pretended to be a human instead of an immobile stereo. So the dinobots prob see displays showing lifesize models of dinosaurs and try to simulate them but can`t get it quite right so they look robotic still.

,I think your right :huh: Cuz Transformers are made of weird deepspace metal but in a movie...some people will think that Transformer metal is Earth metal. So for those retarded people....Transformers need to my iron/steel. So probably Dinobots can copy the latex skin on the robot dinosaur so it just resembles the dinosaur.

If you play up the low intelligence aspect of the dinobots, it would be believable to see them try to take on the guise of animatronic dinosaurs thinking they can blend in in that disguise. It could be played up for humour as well.

For whatever reason, I really thought Megatron was going to have a T-Rex mode since he seemed to crash land pretty early on in Earth history.

It wasnt that early.
Even G1 Megatron [and the rest] didnt crash that early on in Earth history.

I wasnt talking about G1, Megatron seemed like he was there for awhile. And the Beast Wars Dinobots got their modes from fossils.

I know you werent talking about G1 Megatron.But G1 Megatron was on earth far longer then Movie Megatron and he still wasnt on earth at the time of the Dinosaurs.
What I'm saying is that Movie Megatron wasnt on earth at the time of the Dinosaurs.
According to the movies back story and the official movie adaptation comic Movie Megatron landed on earth 10,000 years ago.
And the Beast Wars Dinobots got their modes from fossils.
There were NO Beast Wars "Dinobots".
If you mean characters in Beast Wars with Dino modes then yes thats how they got their modes....by scanning fossils in the area.
